A’Fair Sidewalk Art

0 of 5 Stars
After 36 years... The annual Capitol A’fair event features a new display... on the sidewalk. Megan Lowry takes a look at art from a 3-D perspective. Megan? Most kids have played hopscotch... or drawn pictures with chalk on our walkways... But one man may have pedestrians wanting to jump "into" his art. 36:16:18 "It's a great thing to make a mess on somebody else's sidewalk and not have to clean it up." It starts out as a simple sketch... Then by adding color and shading the piece, it comes to life. " With 3d art you use mathematics and fun stuff to make the image appear to pop out of ground."

Mccann says the beauty of the art is that it's temporary. This piece will take 2 days to complete, but soon fades away. "It's creating those images that people will remember I've run into a lot of people who remember back three or four years ago who saw myself or somebody else working on a piece I think because it's such a short-lived process people remember that." Leaving a lasting image for those walking by. "To see their reaction when they see the final piece and the kids say I want to go home and create one in my own driveway that's really why I do it." The finished image will be of a North Dakota butte with bison at the base. Mcc...
